* Note * Pratt Livestock will have a bred cow and heifer sale next Monday November 21

Compared to last week, not enough feeder steers and heifers 600 lb to 950 lb for a market test, however a higher trend was noted. Steer and heifer calves 400 lb to 600 lb sold 3.00 to 6.00, however fancy vaccinated calves sold up to 20.00 higher. Demand was good. Slaughter cows sold 7.00 to 8.00 lower. Slaughter bulls sold 2.00 higher.
